Love travelling without organising to much? See where ever you end up? Just to enjoy some happy travels in Western Australia, you do however need some organising.
So a few tips to avoid shortage of water, fuel and food:

General tips:

Let someone know where you going, especially when you are in remote areas. Also when you expect to arrive at your destination.

Bring plenty of water and refill it as soon as you have got the oppertunity. Empty jerry cans aren't going to help you when stuck in the outback.

Bring detailed maps with you.

Stay with your vehicle when stuck. Don't go for a walkabout.

Wear clothes with long sleeves, a hat, sunnies, sunscreen etc.

Stay away from living creatures like wildlife. More info about wildlife by clicking here.

If you pass a roadhouse or fuel station: fuel up!! Don't think you can make it until the next one. Besides, you never know when a nice side road comes up that needs exploring. You do need enough fuel for that!

While you're there: refill your water bottles!
